Your spot on about Tevez and De JongI can think who I wouldn't want - tevez and de Jong, the first treated us like shit and for some reason because he tried hard (in the games he wasn't playing golf, in Argentina or Portugal or too fat to play) and was good he was loved. Even though he skipped the country on us 4 times, refused to come on, bad mouthed us, tried to ruin our league and FA cup wins and did as I understand it a lot more the club hushed up. De Jong the most overrated city player in my 35 years following us , a decent enough ball winning midfielder but his passing and positioning were terrible and he slowed the whole team. He was loved because of his last ditch tackle but if he had a positional brain and a tactical brain he wouldn't have needed to do them. Barry was 10x the player and amazingly some still rate de Jong higher when honestly Barry v de Jong in my eyes is like comparing Silva v Horlock (I love soupfer btw but he was no silva)
As to who I'd love to see!
Stuart Pearce in his prime, the leader, the psycho and the man we desperately need.
Robbie fowler in his prime - still think he could have been the best striker Englnd ever had and pre injury his finishing was amazing
Ali B in his prime
And for comedy fun purposes I'd love to see what wanchope would be like coming off the bench with this team
Got bored with Tevez in 10-11 season .
De Jong - the same he was more bothered about himself than playing for the club .
Plus he wasn't the player some people make him out to be .
I agree about Ali B .
This guy in his prime would have been magic .
